Egypt
Planter and Water Feature
Design Jan Ostwald
The pyramids and desert sands of ancient Egypt provided the inspiration for this urban planter, created by turning a pyramid-shaped form upside-down. The planter can hold water as easily as it can contain earth, making it a versatile feature for any terrace or garden. Made from COR-TEN steel, the ashtray’s surface oxidises over time to create a beautifully weathered patina. The planter can be fitted with an inner container and irrigation tank to keep the compost moist.
